Blow for Redknapp as Roma agree £10.6m deal with Barcelona for forward Bojan

Tottenham have suffered a major transfer blow after Barcelona agreed to sell Bojan Krkic to Roma for £10.6m.

Under the terms of the deal the Spanish and European champions can also buy the 20-year-old back at the end of the 2012-13 season.

Bojan, who has been linked with a move to White Hart Lane, has won a host of trophies with Barcelona over the past three seasons but is not one of Pep Guardiola's first-choice forwards and has spent most of the time on the bench.

He will join up with former Barca and Spain midfielder Luis Enrique, who has moved to the Italian capital to take charge of Roma after a successful season coaching the club's B team.
